Summary
It was odd: in all the times he’d had friends over before, it’d never felt so important to get everything right. You weren’t supposed to care this much about being a good host when you were fifteen, he thought. It was the sort of thing that only mattered once you got older.
(Or: the mortifying ordeal of having someone you like over to your house.)

John and Paul both end up at the 1975 Grammy Awards, and at Elton's after party. They haven't seen each other since the break-up. It's awkward! It's emotional! It's sexy! They finally talk. And more?

Summary
Sitting in a studio, playing an instrument and waiting for the next argument, wasn’t good for his body or his soul. He was right to have left, he decided. It would be good for John, too, once he got the note and followed Paul. They could get their heads on straight, away from Apple and the lawyers.

Summary
For the kinkmeme prompt:
Paul hears on the grapevine (or directly from John) that John has a new love called David. Obviously he’s not going to give John the satisfaction of asking about him, but all he hears is how complete John’s life is with David in it, and how John only wants to share his bed with David from now on. Turns out David is a cat, but Paul doesn’t know that.

Summary
“When I was fifteen I was thinking, ‘If only I can get out of Liverpool and be famous and be rich, wouldn’t it be great?’ I was always thinking I was going to be a famous artist. And possibly I’d have to marry a very rich old lady, or man, to look after me while I did my art.” John Lennon, 1975
An AU in which John pursues art (with the help of someone to look after him), Paul pursues music and the two of them meet in the middle.

Summary
When he’s two years old, the first color Paul learns is yellow.
Yellow is the sun, bright and big in the sky. It’s the color of the cat that sits in the garden and the daffodils that grow in the grass that the cat likes to stretch out on. It’s the color of the walls at his auntie’s house and the color of the little sweets he likes so much. Most importantly, yellow is the color of the dress his mum likes to wear. She tells him this with a sweet voice, petting his hair, pointing out everything in the room that’s yellow.
AKA an AU where you see in black & white until you touch your soulmate.

Summary
Paul waved a hand over John's eyes, then snapped twice, enough to startle him— John didn't budge. Not even after Paul touched and gently pulled at a strand of hair (to test his awareness, of course).
Retreating, Paul felt another smile rise. Though they'd stayed at each other's frequently nowadays, he'd never known John talked in his sleep.

Summary
Paul still had that dreadful little moustache, his dark hair curling over his collar, but he looked good. Relaxed, a bit sunburned. Annoyingly fucking fit, if John was being very honest with himself, which he was really trying to be, these days.
"Paul and Linda were going to New Orleans to record the Venus and Mars album," May recalled. "And John found out they would be there. He made plans to surprise them down there. He was in a great mood and he really missed Paul."
1975. The trip to New Orleans that never happened.

Summary
During their 1965 filming of Help, John learns something about Paul's devotion
Paul likes the attention, craves it, John knows, though he’ll never be able to get Paul to admit to it. Like a show dog, he thinks as Paul stumbles on the snow again, scowling and waiting to be collected up by one of the crew, wrapped up in his black furs and snow boots. It’s greedy, really. Someone should put him in his place, train him to behave better.

Summary
John had never considered Paul to be cute.
There were many words for describing Paul’s looks, but despite what all the fans and magazines and journalists and even their own movie had insisted on, John had never for once thought of Paul as “the cute one”.
That all changed one unforgettable day in the sheltering Alps.

Summary
“The girls have started calling Paul daddy, Eppy, what do you think of that?” John asks, cutting Brian off in that way he does, and it’s instant, the way Brian stumbles, blinks, flushes pink down his neck and across the long point of his nose. George presses his legs together, swallows, briefly contemplating tossing himself out the window to be pulled apart by the sea of girls outside, when Brian clears his throat.
“Yes, well, Paul’s always been popular with the girls,” he says, then frowns over at George. “Haven’t you washed up yet?”
